Communication and Fundraising Consultant (Freelance)

Software Engineer - Ruby on Rails (Bangalore)

Commutatus partners with ambitious entrepreneurs, startups, and corporates in various industries to conceptualise, design, and build digital products. We are the team that companies like AIESEC, Rajasthan Royals, Brevo, NADIM, Gehna India, Brevo and others hire to get things done.

Over the past years, we've gained substantial experience building platforms and doing it the right way. The platforms we build now are both super malleable and easy to scale. Our vision at Commutatus is To bring tomorrow closer to today, and we aspire to achieve that more than one client at a time.

Take a look at why you should work here! We've recorded a video to provide you with a quick overview of who we are and what we aim to achieve with this role. Watch it.

What would you do at Commutatus

You'll primarily work in a squad of 6 - 8 people comprising designers, front-end engineers, back-end engineers, and a project manager.

Your responsibilities will include -

Research and feasibility checks: Assist in ideating features by providing inputs based on research or your experience. You'll often advise the team on the feasibility of ideas and provide alternate routes to meet the objective of the feature.

Planning and estimation: You will assist the squad in planning and estimating features to ensure they roll out on time and function as expected.

Framework Development: Your work will power the backbone of our platform. You’ll build frameworks, such as file exports and rate limiting, that roll out to 50+ platforms through gem updates, shaping how thousands of users experience our products.

Framework Implementation: Your work will directly impact clients across industries. In just a week, you could streamline inventory for an e-commerce brand or launch a course manager for an EdTech startup—all through our Platform Gem and GraphQL APIs.

Continuous improvement: Play an active role in team retrospective events by flagging problems and frustrations in the team and offering solutions.

What you need to have: We are not big on credentials. A computer science degree or graduating from a prestigious university is not something we spend much time looking at. We care about what you can do and how you do it, not how you got there.

Absolute Requirements

You are open to working remotely.
You have exceptional communication skills.
You are resourceful - we don't expect you to know all the answers right away, but we want you to research and learn on the go to get the job done right.
You can identify problems around you and independently propose solutions to these problems. We love independent problem-solvers and encourage all our employees to suggest changes to streamline our processes.
You are organised and structured. Your PRs are well-structured, have excellent descriptions, and your JIRA tickets are always in the right status. You demonstrate a strong understanding of Ruby on Rails, APIs, and database design.

Skills and experiences we'd like to see

You've built scalable digital platforms before that have been deployed to production environments.
You know how GraphQL and REST APIs work, i.e., how to build, maintain, and improve them.
You have designed databases and optimised their performance.
You understand the various components of a backend system, including app servers, databases, and caches.
You've contributed to open source, built developer tools or plugins
You have a sound understanding of deploying apps to staging or production via automated tools such as Github Actions..

What we can give you

A supportive team who'll help you when you are stuck!
A learning path, feedback, and resources to take you to the next step in your technical career! We even sponsor certifications and tickets to select tech events!
A safe space to explore your varied interests.
A platform to explore and understand different domains.
An invested interest in your well-being. All our employees benefit from generous health insurance.

Reality check
